Sorry for my recent absence. You don't have to say it… I know you missed me. No real inspiration lately. So here's my thoughts on some random stuff...
In case you missed Game 1 or you stopped watching the NBA awhile ago, Deron Williams is sick.
And here I thought Dee Brown was the reason the Illini were such a force. Who knew?!?
D-Will dropped 34 pts, 9 ast and 7 rebs on us in Game 1… and that's after only 8 pts in the first half. Too bad Utah can't clone him.
Carlos Boozer finished with decent numbers, but most were when this game was already over...forget the score, this game was never close.
Sadly, Jerry Sloan might need to resurrect the ghost of Stockton-Malone to stop the Spurs from doing whatever they want to do.
It didn't take long for Tim Duncan to get a list of Utah's bigs in foul trouble. They couldn't stop him in Game 1, they won't stop him the rest of the series. How this team took 2 out of 4 games against us this season is beyond me.
The Jazz will be lucky to win a game against the Spurs.
...
On the other side of the NBA hemisphere, I'm surprised by how close the Cavs kept it against the Pistons. I'm not sure if I overrated Detroit or underrated Cleveland. Probably a little of both.
And while the Cavs have to be encouraged they hung in there despite Bron Bron's worst playoff game ever (10 points), does it really matter? Regardless of who comes out of the East, we all know the trophy is headed to the Alamo city.
But for all those bashing LeBron for passing up that final shot, you can stop. If Donyell knocks down that wide open 3 from the corner, we are hailing King James today with praise of his unselfishness and court vision.
Instead, we're slamming his lack of killer instinct. Enough already.
...
As if Michael Vick's pet problems weren't enough, now Clinton Portis wants to try and defend the guy.
"I don't know if he was fighting dogs or not, but it's his property, it's his dog," Washington Redskins running back Clinton Portis told WAVY-TV in Virginia. "If that's what he wants to do, do it. I think people should mind their business."
Really, dude? I mean, REALLY?
There is no defense for someone who raises animals to rip each other's faces off for entertainment purposes. It's sick and there is no justification. End of story.
C-Port, keep your mouth shut bud. We always knew you weren't the smartest cookie, now we know you're a complete moron. I can't believe you were on my fantasy team. I thought I taught you better than this.
...
Ok seriously, what the hell is going on with the NFL?
Pacman Jones.
Chris Henry.
Tank Johnson.
Michael Vick.
A.J. Nicholson.
Now, even the white boys are getting in on the fun as a judge ordered Broncos WR David Kircus on Tuesday to stay away from the man he is suspected of assaulting at a weekend party.
Between all these jokers, HBO already has their cast lined up for the next installment of "Oz."
Knock it off and play football. How hard is that to do? Here's an idea… get a PlayStation and stay home!
...
NBA Lottery is tonight. Could care less who wins, although wouldn’t it be sweet karmic justice for the Knicks to win and the Bulls to take their pick (how's that Eddy Curry deal working out for you guys?). The hits just keep on coming for Zeke.
But whoever wins, if Greg Oden isn't the pick, the GM should be fired on the spot.
Kevin Durant will be good. Oden will be great. And coming from a lifelong Buckeye hater, it takes a lot for me to say that. The Big O is that good.
But because I've never been one to turn down a shot at a prediction, I'm going with Seattle (8.8% chance to win) to get the lucky ping pong ball.
...
Bar none, this is the greatest week of television I can remember in recent history.
Monday – "Heroes" finale (even though it was sub-par at best. Grade: C-)
Tuesday – Game 2 of Spurs/Jazz (is a prediction really necessary. Ok fine, keep reading…)
Wednesday – "Lost" season finale. I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS!
As for Thursday?
Forget TV, I'll be sitting in the friendly confines of Wrigley West – aka Petco Park in San Diego. Making the annual pilgrimage south to watch my Cubbies get well against the Pads. Should be fun. I get Chris Young vs Jason Marquis… gonna be a tough match-up.
And lastly for all you "American Idol" fans out there… go Jordin! If that beat-boxing doofus wins, it's a sad day for the recording industry.
Plus, how can I root against my girl from 'Zona?!?

Does anybody remember when everybody hated the Utah Jazz? Why, all of a sudden, are they a likeable team? Oh wait... GOt it... They're playing the Spurs.
Clinton Portis, AKA, Southeast Jerome, Dr. I don't know, Coach Janky Spanky, Kid Bro Sweets, and Dolla Bill... You're not that smart.
We get it! Enough already! The Spurs are in cahoots with the commissioner... They bought themselves an NBA title. Simple as that. Just enough already with the Spurs fans. You cheated! We get it.
By the way, the Royals have won 7 of 9... Enfuego!
If Michael Vick is convicted or even arrested, it won't be just the Falcons who'll be in trouble. The NFL and new commish, Roger Goodell are in for a public relations nightmare.
And, by the way, are the NBA playoffs still on? Since the best and most exciting team is out (b/c of one ridculous rule) I had a choice last night of hockey or the Indians/Royals game. Suffice to say, I watched American Idol.
